Are you a Wednesday Addams fan? Today I’m sharing an easy Wednesday Addams costume with an updated twist on her signature braids.

Wednesday Addams has always been a favorite character for many of us who grew up watching The Addams Family. Her simple, iconic look is easy to recreate and makes a perfect Halloween costume for any age.

For this version I modernized Wednesday’s braids with fishtail pigtails and paired them with a simple black-and-white outfit. The result is a cute, recognizable costume that’s quick to assemble—ideal for last-minute plans.

Anyone can wear this costume: toddlers, kids, teens and adults. It keeps the classic mood but feels fresh and less likely to be duplicated at every party.

Last weekend we hosted a cozy wreath workshop with Malorie of Petal + Fold, and it was such a joyful afternoon. Keeping the group intentionally small allowed us to stay relaxed, give everyone space to work, and enjoy the process of making large, beautiful wreaths without feeling crowded.

To match the laid-back atmosphere, decorations were minimal yet thoughtful. I designed a new winter style guide that became the visual focus of the workshop alongside the flower table. That simple focal point helped set the tone without overwhelming the space.

There were a few DIY touches sprinkled throughout the event—little handmade accents that made the day feel personal. But the true highlights were the flowers. We sourced everything from Flower Muse, one of my favorite suppliers for fresh blooms and greenery, and Malorie arranged the gorgeous centerpieces. The florals made the room feel festive and warm.

Below you’ll find photos from the workshop and the DIY ideas we used. For more wreath inspiration, see the asymmetrical wreath tutorial I shared earlier in the week.

If you follow me on Instagram, you may have seen my staircase before, but the small space opposite the stairs was one area I rarely shared because it always felt awkward—until now.

I finally found the motivation to finish that overlooked spot. The transformation is dramatic and I’m so happy with how it turned out.

Best of all, every change I made is renter-friendly. From masking a major eyesore with a removable solution to swapping the light fixture and using peel-and-stick wallpaper, the makeover works for a leased home.

Scroll for the full breakdown and the before photos—you’ll definitely want to see them.

I can’t go a week lately without talking about planters—whether to buy or DIY. I couldn’t resist one more spring planter project, especially because this one is just as simple as the popular hanging planter hack many of you loved. Even better: it gives something old a fresh, modern look.

I partnered with Rust‑Oleum to revive some rusty metal planters using Rust‑Oleum Stops Rust Protective Enamel spray paint. These planters needed a quick reboot, and this product not only updates the finish but also provides a durable, corrosion‑resistant coating that helps prevent future rust. I’ll walk through the quick process and show the before and after.
